Bumbo

We got a new piece of baby gear. It is called a Bumbo and it is supposed to help babies learn how to sit. I got one to see if they would like it. What do you think???

Trip to the Beach

We took our first "family" vacation to the beach. We had such a magnificent time and learned a lot about how to travel with kids! We were pleasantly surprised with how well the kids did in the car. We enjoyed walks on the beach and around Litchfield, dinner at Rick's Outback, and the pool.
I hope you enjoy the collection of pictures below.

Hooray!

A big day in our house. Max and Kate were enjoying a little tummy time this morning. Kate was showing Max how to hold up his head. The next thing I knew, Kate rolled over onto her back. We had this moment where we looked at each other thinking "did that really just happen?" and indeed it did. WOW! I can not believe it. Max promptly put his head down...

Unique Personalities

Max and Great are great! Even though many people think they are looking more alike, they are developing unique personalities.

Fun Facts
Kate is very outgoing. She smiles, talks, demands our attention, wiggles nonstop until she falls asleep, and loves to swing for hours. She discovered that their is a baby in the mirror and tried to touch the baby! I find her sleeping on her side from time-to-time. During tummy time she will inchworm her way toward toys, but then does not know what to do. She would prefer to be naked but dresses come in a close second! She is working on her giggles and bubbles.

Max is very talkative and smiley in the early morning before Kate wakes up. He enjoys time in the bathroom whether we are are getting ready for the day or he is taking a bath. He does not like to be cold at all. He LOVES his hat even though it is too big. He panics when he can not see me and/or can not find his pacifier. Max will cuddle with me anytime which makes us both smile. Our morning walks are always a soother.
